Sheep are usually sheared once per year, usually before lambing or in the spring before the onset of warm weather. Sheep with long fleeces are sometimes sheared twice a year. Feeder lambs are sometimes sheared to make them more comfortable during the summer. Shearing prior to lambing results in a cleaner environment for baby lambs. It also keeps the fleeces cleaner. (1)

We can always use animals in some way and make them so we are not threat to them. Plus, farmers rightfully own the animals and provide it comfort and only kill it if the animal is meant for food.
